Question

Which of the following statement is incorrect about the elements/compounds of group 14 ? (A) Silicones are polymeric organosilicon compounds (B) SiF 4 has tetrahedral shape (C) Pb 2+ is less stable than Sn 2+ (D) Mg 2 C 3 is an allylide type of ionic carbide

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Stability of +2 oxidation state increases down the group. 14 due to inert pair effect thus, Pb 2+ is more stable than Sn 2+

Q. Which of the following statement is incorrect about the elements/compounds of group $14 ?$

Silicones are polymeric organosilicon compounds

$S i F_{4}$ has tetrahedral shape

$P b^{2 +}$ is less stable than $S n^{2 +}$

$M g_{2} C_{3}$ is an allylide type of ionic carbide

Stability of $+ 2$ oxidation state increases down the group. 14 due to inert pair effect thus, $P b^{2 +}$ is more stable than $S n^{2 +}$
